It's no surprise that summer is over and fall is here. Which SUCKS. Don't get me wrong - I love fall. It's one of my favourite seasons. But the transition between summer and fall wreaks havoc on my body. It's something about going from warm to cold I suppose. (The same happens at the beginning of summer, when it goes from cold to hot) But I want to sleep ALL THE TIME. Like I'm tired on a normal day, but when the seasons change it's almost a little bit ridiculous. And unfortunately I can't just nap whenever I want to. I used to have that option, but I've been so busy lately that I can't even sneak a nap into my busy schedule. So I risk falling asleep wherever I am (in the office, in the van, at a class...) It's pretty terrible. I always tell people that they aren't allowed to complain to me about being tired. Until you have felt the fatigue I feel, you cannot complain!
As you've noticed, I haven't posted all summer. It was a busy summer. So to re-cap:
- MS-wise, things were good. I handled the heat well, even spending time on the beach.
- The only issue was the spring-to-summer transition, like mentioned above, and that took a lot out of me. Again, I wanted to sleep all the time. Fatigue sucks.
- I kinda fell off the wagon on my working out, which I'm feeling effects of now when I went back to dance class. My foot isn't as strong as it used to be and I can't dance on my toes much anymore. But I'm back into running again so I'm hoping it will strengthen up again quickly.
Like I said, I've been busy. Last week I finally realized that I have too much on my plate and I have to cut it back somewhere before I relapse. The way I've been going, it could be any time. So I'm trying to slow down. I'm so lucky to have Jason, who keep the house in order (somewhat) while I'm busy with work and cakes. Now I just need to teach him how to cook...
